The DXi controller provides a variety of user-configurable, flow-related features
for up to three flow sensors, referred to as Flow #1, Flow #2, and Flow #3. Flow
sensors may be of both conventional and/or decoder type.
DXi flow features/capabilities include:
• Display of instantaneous flow rate in gallons per minute (GPM) for all three
meters as well as total (Flow #1 + Flow #2 + Flow #3). Flow rates are updated
every ten seconds.
• Display of monthly flow accumulations in gallons for all three flow meters as well
as total (Flow #1 + Flow #2 + Flow #3). Flow accumulation in gallons is updated
every minute.
• Automatic termination of watering based upon flow limit violations:
• Main line flow rate for controller (GPM)
• Maximum flow rate per station (GPM)
• Minimum flow rate per station (GPM)
• Maximum flow accumulation per month (gallons)
• Unscheduled flow rate for controller (GPM)
• Automatic condemnation and reporting of stations violating flow limits.
Alert information is provided in Chapter 8: Alerts.
• Automatic establishment of station upper and lower flow limits (Learn mode).
